I think Mangas is the right answer!
<span>Assuming that this is referring to the same list of options that was posted before with this question, <span>the correct response would be that the British Victory in the war came with a lot of war debt, which Britain taxed the colonies in order to pay off--eventually leading to the colonists' rebellion. </span></span>
The British thought the colonists should help pay for the cost of their own protection. Furthermore, the French and Indian War had cost the British treasury £70,000,000 and doubled their national debt to £140,000,000. Compared to this staggering sum, the colonists' debts were extremely light, as was their tax burden.
Hope this helped :)
